The Company accounts for sales returns accrual by recording an allowance for sales returns concurrent withthe recognition of revenue at the time of a product sale. This allowance is based on the Company's estimate ofexpected sales returns. With respect to established products, the Company considers its historical experience ofsales returns, levels of inventory in the distribution channel, estimated shelf life, to the extent each of these factorsimpact the Company's business and markets. With respect to new products introduced by the Company, suchproducts have historically been either extensions of an existing line of product where the Company has historicalexperience or in therapeutic categories where established products exist and are sold either by the Company.
The preparation of financial statements involves estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount ofassets, liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amountof revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Specifically, the Company estimates the probability ofcollection of accounts receivable by analysing historical payment patterns, customer concentrations, customercredit-worthiness and current economic trends. If the financial condition of a customer deteriorates, additionalallowances may be required.
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenuecan be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made.
Revenue is measured at the transaction price for each separate performance obligation, taking into account contractuallydefined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government. The transaction price is netof estimated Sales returns, rebates and other similar allowances.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized at that point in time, the customer has the ability to direct the use of,and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the asset or to restrict the access of other entities to thosebenefits.
The time taken from entering into order and sale is less than 12 months and the normal credit period offered to customersis also less than 12 months. The company offers trade Discount, Quantity Discount, cash Discount, Discount for Shortageor quality issue discount which are factored while determining transaction price. Revenue is recognised such thatsignificant reversal is not highly probable. The reconciliation between the contract price and revenue recognised isgiven in Note 32.
When the consideration is received, before the Company transfers goods to the customer, the Company presents theconsideration as a contract liability.
i) Job Work service contracts are recognised at point in time as control is transferred to the customer only on dispatch.and
ii) the revenue relating to supplies are measured in line with policy set out in 4(iii)(a).
When the consideration is received, before the Company transfers goods to the customer, the Company shallpresent the consideration as a contract liability and when the services rendered by the Company exceed thepayment, a contract asset is recognised excluding any amount presented as receivable.
Export entitlements are recognized in the profit or loss when the right to receive credit as per the terms of schemeis established in respect of the exports made and where there is no significant uncertainty regarding the ultimatecollection of the relevant export proceeds.
Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of the fainancial assetsexcept when the financial asset is credit-impaired in which case the effective interest rate is applied to the amortisedcost of the financial asset.Effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts throughthe expected life of the financial asset to that asset's gross carrying amount on initial recognition.
Property, plant and equipment are tangible items that are held for use in the production or supply of goods and services,rental to others or for administrative purposes and are expected to be used during more than one period. The cost of an itemof property, plant and equipment is recognised as an asset if and only, if it is probable that future economic benefits associatedwith the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Freehold land is carried at costless accumulated impairment losses. All other items of property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulateddepreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises:
• Its purchase price, all costs including financial costs till commencement of commercial production are capitalized to thecost of qualifying assets. Tax credit, if any, are accounted for by reducing the cost of capital goods;
• Any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable ofoperating in the manner intended by management.
All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
An item of property, plant and equipment is de recognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expectedto arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property,plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset andis recognised in profit or loss.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets thatnecessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use, are added to the cost of those assets, untilsuch time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use.
Capital work in progress is stated at cost, comprising direct cost, related incidental expenses and attributable borrowing costand net of accumulated impairment losses, if any. All the direct expenditure related to implementation including incidentalexpenditure incurred during the period of implementation of a project, till it is ready for use in intended manner, is accountedas Capital work in progress (CWIP) and subsequently the same is transferred / allocated to the respective item of property,plant and equipment. Pre-operating costs, being indirect in nature, are expensed to the profit or loss as and when incurred.
The Company recognises compensation from third parties for items of property, plant and equipment that were impaired,lost or given up in profit or loss when the compensation becomes receivable.
The carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized on disposal or when no future economicbenefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss from the derecognition of an item of property, plant andequipment is recognised in the profit or loss when the item is derecognized.
Depreciation is provided on straight line method for property, plant and equipment so as to expense the cost over theirestimated useful lives based on evaluation which are as indicated in Schedule II to Companies Act,2013. The residual values,useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end andadjusted prospectively, if appropriate.Depreciable amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is arrived at afterdeducting estimated residual value. The depreciable amount of an asset is allocated on a systematic basis over its useful life.Depreciation commences when the item of property, plant and equipment is in the location and condition necessary for itto be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Depreciation ceases at the earlier of the date that theasset is classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group that is classified as held for sale) and the date that the assetis derecognized. The Company review the depreciation method at each financial year-end and if, there has been a significantchange in the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the asset, the method ischanged to reflect the changed pattern. Such a change is accounted as a change in accounting estimate on prospective basis.
The Company identifies an identifiable non-monetary asset without physical substance as an intangible asset. The Companyrecognises an intangible asset if it is probable that expected future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flowto the entity and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. An intangible asset is initially measured at cost unlessacquired in a business combination in which case an intangible asset is measured at its fair value on the date of acquisition.The Company identifies research phase and development phase of an internally generated intangible asset. Expenditureincurred on research phase is recognised as an expense in the profit or loss for the period in which incurred. Expenditure ondevelopment phase are capitalised only when the Company is able to demonstrate the technical feasibility of completingthe intangible asset, the ability to use the intangible asset and the development expenditure can be measured reliably. TheCompany subsequently measures all intangible assets at cost less accumulated amortisation less accumulated impairment.An intangible asset is amortised on a straight-line basis over its useful life. Amortization commences when the asset is in thelocation and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Amortizationceases at the earlier of the date that the asset is classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group that is classifiedas held for sale) and the date that the asset is derecognised. The amortization charge for each period is recognised in profitor loss unless the charge is a part of the cost of another asset. The amortization period and method are reviewed at eachfinancial year end. Any change in the period or method is accounted for as a change in accounting estimate prospectively.The Company derecognises an intangible asset on its disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from itsuse or disposal and any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in profit or loss account as gain / loss on derecognition ofasset.
Raw Materials, Packing Materials, Stores & Spares and consumables are valued at lower of cost (net of refundable taxes andduties) and net realisable value. The cost of these items of inventory are determined on FIFO basis and comprises of cost ofpurchase and other incidental costs incurred to bring the inventories to their location and condition. Materials and otheritems held for use in the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished products in which they willbe incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost.
Work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of work-in-progress andfinished goods of inventory is determined on weighted average basis. The cost of work-in-progress and finished goodsincludes cost of conversion and other costs incurred to bring the inventories to their present location and condition. Obsolete,slow moving and defective inventories are identified and valued at lower of cost and net realisable value.
Stock in Trade is valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on FIFO basis.
The Company's leased assets consist of leases for Land. At inception of a contract, the company assesses whether a contractis, or contains, a lease. A contract is or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identifiedasset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use ofan identified asset, the company assesses whether: (i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the company hasthe right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset throughout the period of use; and (iii) thecompany has the right to direct the use of the asset.
The Company recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset isinitially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at orbefore the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove theunderlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.
The right-to-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to theearlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The estimated useful lives of right-of-use assets are determined on the same basis as those of Property, Plant and Equipment. In addition, the right-of-use asset isperiodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencementdate, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company'sincremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.
The lease liability is subsequently measured as given below:
(a) increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability;
(b) reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made; and
(c) remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications.
When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-to-use asset, or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.
The Company has elected not to recognise right-to-use assets and lease liabilities for short term lease that have a lease termof 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognises the lease payments associated with these leaseson straight line basis as per the terms of the lease.
All financial assets and financial liabilities except trade receivables are initially measured at fair value. Fair value isadjusted for transaction costs if the financial asset or financial liability is not classified as subsequently measured at fairvalue through profit or loss. Trade receivables are initially measured at transaction price.
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in following categories:
i) Financial assets measured at amortised cost and
ii) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
The Company classifies its financial assets in the above mentioned categories based on:
a) The Company's business model for managing the financial assets, and
b) The contractual cash flows characteristics of the financial asset.
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met:
a) A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if the financial asset is held within a business model whose objectiveis to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the Contractual terms of the financial assetsgive rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principalamount outstanding.
b) Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method.Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs thatare an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in finance income in the profit or loss. The lossesarising from impairment are recognised in the profit or loss.
Trade receivables, Advances, Security Deposits, Cash and Cash Equivalents etc. are classified for measurement atamortised cost.
A financial asset is measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it is measured at amortised cost or fair valuethrough other comprehensive income. In addition, The Company may elect to designate a financial asset, which
otherwise meets amortised cost , as at FVTPL. However, such election is allowed only if doing so reduces or eliminates ameasurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as 'accounting mismatch').
The Company derecognizes a financial asset when contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when ittransfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.
On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of theconsideration received and receivable is recognized in the profit or loss.
The Company applies expected credit losses (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of loss allowance on the following:
i. Trade receivables,
ii. Financial assets measured at amortized cost (other than trade receivables),
ECL is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and allthe cash flows that the entity expects to receive (i.e., all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest rate.
In case of trade receivables, the Company follows a simplified approach wherein an amount equal to lifetime ECL is measuredand recognized as loss allowance. As a practical expedient, the Company uses a provision matrix to measure lifetime ECL onits portfolio of trade receivables.
In case of other assets (listed as ii and iii above), the Company determines if there has been a significant increase in credit riskof the financial asset since initial recognition. If the credit risk of such assets has not increased significantly, an amount equalto 12-month ECL is measured and recognized as loss allowance. However, if credit risk has increased significantly, an amountequal to lifetime ECL is measured and recognized as loss allowance.
Subsequently, if the credit quality of the financial asset improves such that there is no longer a significant increase in creditrisk since initial recognition, the Company reverts to recognizing impairment loss allowance based on 12-month ECL.Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial asset.12-month ECL are a portion of the lifetime ECL which result from default events that are possible within 12 months from thereporting date.
ECL impairment loss allowance (or reversal) recognized during the period is recognized as income/ expense in the profit or loss.
ECL are measured in a manner that they reflect unbiased and probability weighted amounts determined by a range ofoutcomes, taking into account the time value of money and other reasonable information available as a result of past events,current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.
At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial liabilities (which are not measured at fair value) through profitor loss at its fair value plus or minus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the financial liability.
The company's financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings, bank overdrafts and financialguarantee.
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
i) Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost.
ii) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL).
All financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost. Any discount or premium on redemption/ settlement isrecognised in the Profit or Loss as finance cost over the life of the liability using the effective interest method andadjusted to the liability figure disclosed in the Balance Sheet.
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financialliabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities are classifiedas held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. Gains or losses on liabilitiesheld for trading are recognised in the profit or loss.
Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss are designated as such atthe initial date of recognition, and only if the criteria in Ind AS 109 are satisfied. For liabilities designated as FVTPL,fair value gains/ losses attributable to changes in own credit risk are recognized in OCI. These gains/ loss are notsubsequently transferred to profit or loss. However, the company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss withinequity. All other changes in fair value of such liability are recognised in the profit or loss.
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the liability is extinguished, that is, when the contractual obligation isdischarged or cancelled or expiry. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lenderon substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange ormodification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The differencein the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the profit or loss.
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of itsliabilities.
The Company enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to foreign exchange raterisks and interest rate risks.
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequentlyremeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit orloss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which the timing of therecognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedging relationship and the nature of the hedged item.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the standalone balance sheet if thereis a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis,to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
Cash comprises cash on hand and demand deposits with banks. Cash equivalents are short-term balances (with an originalmaturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition), which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits, as definedabove, net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of the Company's cash management.
Short Term benefits are recognised as an expense at the undiscounted amounts in the profit or loss of the year in whichthe related service is rendered.
The Employee and Company make monthly fixed Contribution to Government of India Employee's Provident Fundequal to a specified percentage of the employees' salary, Provision for the same is made in the year in which serviceare rendered by employee.
The Liability for Gratuity to employees, which is a defined benefit plan, as at Balance Sheet date determined onthe basis of actuarial Valuation based on Projected Unit Credit method is funded to a Gratuity fund administeredby the trustees and managed by Life Insurance Corporation of India and the contribution thereof paid/payable isabsorbed in the accounts.
The present value of the defined benefit obligations is determined by discounting the estimated future cashflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have termsapproximating to the terms of the related obligation. The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discountrate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included inemployee benefit expenses in the profit or loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptionsare recognized in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included inretained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in balance sheet. Changes in present value of thedefined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendment or curtailments are recognized immediately in profit orloss as past service cost.
Current tax is determined on income for the year chargeable to tax on the basis of the tax laws enacted orsubstantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Current tax items are recognised in correlation to theunderlying transaction either in profit or loss or OCI or directly in equity. The Company has provided for the taxliability based on the significant judgment that the taxation authority will accept the tax treatment.
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in thebalance sheet and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities arerecognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporarydifferences, unabsorbed losses and tax credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will beavailable against which those deductible temporary differences, unabsorbed losses and tax credits will be utilised.The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of financial year and reduced to the extentthat it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to berecovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the periodin which the liability is expected to be settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates and tax laws that have beensubstantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legallyenforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxeslevied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on anet basis.
The Company restricts recognition of deferred tax asset on unabsorbed depreciation to the extent of thecorresponding deferred tax liability in absence of availability of sufficient future taxable profit which allow the fullor part of the assets to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in whichthe liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantivelyenacted by the end of the reporting period.
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss for the period attributable to the equity holders ofthe Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. For the purpose ofcalculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and theweighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potentialequity shares.
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit / (loss) before tax is adjusted for the effects oftransactions of non cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The cash flowsfrom operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated based on the available information.
(a) The MCA notified Ind AS 117 on 9 September 2024 to be applicable from 1 April 2024. However, the same was withdrawnvide notification dated 28 September 2024 wherein the applicability of Ind AS 117 was made subject to notification ofIRDAI. IRDAI has not notified Ind AS 117.

The Company offers its employees benefits under defined contribution plans in the form of provident fund. Provident fundcover substantially all regular employees which are on payroll of the company. Both the employees and the Company paypredetermined contributions into the provident fund and approved superannuation fund. The contributions are normallybased on a certain proportion of the employee's salary and are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss as incurred.

The fund is managed by a trust which is governed by the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees are responsible for theadministration of the plan assets and for the definition of the investment strategy.
Valuation of defined benefit plan are performed on certain basic set of pre-determined assumptions and otherregulatory framework which may vary over time. Thus, the Company is exposed to various risks in providing theabove benefit plans which are as follows:
A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the G.Sec. Rate will increase the present value of the liabilityrequiring higher provision. A fall in the discount rate generally increases the mark to market value of theassets depending on the duration of asset.
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries ofmembers. As such, an increase in the salary of the members more than assumed level will increase the plan'sliability.
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determinedby reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. If the return on planasset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit. Currently, for the plan in India, it has a relatively balancedmix of investments in government securities, and other debt instruments.
The Company's management, consisting of the managing director, the chief financial officer and other key managerialpersonnel for corporate planning, monitors the operating results of the below business segments separately for the purposeof making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment and accordingly, based on the principles fordetermination of segments given in Indian Accounting Standard 108"Operating Segments " and in the opinion of managementthe Company is primarily engaged in the business of "Pharmaceutical Products" All other activities of the Company revolvearound the main business and as such there is no separate reportable business segment.
The above fair value hierarchy explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financialinstruments that are (a) recognised and measured at fair value and (b) measured at amortised cost for which fair values aredisclosed in the financial statements. To provide the indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fairvalue, the Company has classified its financial instruments in to three levels prescribed is as under:
Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly(i.e. as prices ) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)
Level 3 - Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs)
There were no transfers between the levels during the year
The finance department of the Company includes a team that performs the valuations of financial assets and liabilities requiredfor financial reporting purposes, including level 3 fair values. The fair valuation of level 1 and level 2 classified assets and liabilitiesare readily available from the quoted prices in the open market and rates available in secondary market respectively.
The carrying amount of trade receivable, trade payable, cash and bank balances, short term loans and advances, receivable,short term borrowing, employee dues are considered to be the same as their fair value due to their short-term nature.
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk. TheCompany's primary risk management focus is to minimize potential adverse effects of market risk on its financial performance.The Company's risk management assessment and policies and processes are established to identify and analyse the risksfaced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor such risks and compliance with the same.
The Company's risk management is governed by policies and approved by the board of directors. Company identifies,evaluates and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the Company's operating units. The company has policies foroverall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk,use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments.
The Company's board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company's riskmanagement framework. The Company manages market risk through a treasury department, which evaluates and exercisesindependent control over the entire process of market risk management. The treasury department recommends riskmanagement objectives and policies, which are approved by Board of Directors. The activities of this department includemanagement of cash resources, borrowing strategies, and ensuring compliance with market risk limits and policies.
The Company's risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to setappropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems arereviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company's activities. The Company, through its trainingand management standards and procedures, aims to maintain a disciplined and constructive control environment in whichall employees understand their roles and obligations.

Theaudit committee is assisted in its oversight role by internal audit. Internal audit undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviewsof risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the audit committee.
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to theCompany. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables),Loans, cashand cash equivalents and other financial instruments.
Customer credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Company's established policy, procedures andcontrol relating to the customer credit risk management. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitoredand taken up on case to case basis. The Company has adopted a policy of dealing with creditworthy counterpartiesand obtaining sufficient collateral, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults.The Company's exposure and the credit scores of its counterparties are continuously monitored. Credit exposure iscontrolled by counterparty limits that are reviewed and approved by the management team on a regular basis. TheCompany evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers are located inseveral jurisdictions representing large number of minor receivables operating in largely independent markets.
The credit risk on cash and bank balances and derivative financial instruments is limited because the counterparties arebanks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit rating agencies.
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails tomeet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company's receivables from customers. Credit risk ismanaged through credit approvals, establishing credit limits, and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness ofcustomers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The history of trade receivablesshows a negligible provision for bad and doubtful debts. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful debts andimpairment that represents its estimate of expected losses in respect of trade and other receivables and investments.The company has adopted simplified approach of ECL model for impairment. The Company has assessed that credit riskon investments, Cash and cash Equivalents & Other bank balance, loans given & other financial assets is insignificantbased on the empirical data.
The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. Thedemographics of the customer, including the default risk of the industry and country in which the customer operates,also has an influence on credit risk assessment. The Company with various activities as mentioned above manages
credit risk. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for major customers. Inaddition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed for impairmentcollectively. The calculation of the same is based on historical data.
